We'd love to see more American teams come up to the Canadian Regional, it makes the whole event more exciting.

While we're on the topic, I'd like to invite teams to come up and attend the 2005 Waterloo regional. The event will be held on the campus of the University of Waterloo, which is only 45 minutes southwest of Toronto's airport. The venue will be nice and intimate, and the town is a great place to visit. I know it's early, but teams should definitely keep this in mind. Plus I'll be there, what more could anyone want?
